Chapter 313: Chapter 315 Waiting to Drink Wedding Wine_1
Qiao Duo’er promptly stuffed the wooden box into the Zou’s hands, "I haven’t even had the chance to thank Daniu’er yet, why add trouble there? Auntie, if you don’t accept it, I will be upset."
"Alright, then I’ll shamelessly accept it, thank you so much." Zou took the wooden box and then said, "Right, you sit for a while, I’ll go make some food for you."
"Auntie, we’re not hungry, and I need to get home too."
Zou pretended to be angry, "Once you’re here, you’re like our own child, don’t be polite!"
After saying this, she hurried to the kitchen, while Daniu’er pulled Qiao Duo’er to the old lady’s room.
The Feng Family’s old lady was also a kind old woman, always had a faint smile on her face, and it was very pleasant to be around her.
After a while, Zou called them to eat.
Worried about delaying Qiao Duo’er’s time, she cooked some noodles and stir-fried two simple home-cooked dishes.
"I just made something simple, don’t look down on it," Zou said humbly.
Just as Qiao Duo’er and Daniu’er picked up their chopsticks, Daniu’er’s second brother also came over, and it happened that Zou made plenty, enough for the three of them.
Once they had eaten their fill, Zou walked them to the front gate.
"Duo’er, come and visit with Daniu’er whenever you have time," Zou said with a smile.
Even though she had only known Qiao Duo’er for half a day, she liked her immensely.
Qiao Duo’er waved her hand, "Thank you for your hospitality, Auntie. When you go to Big Willow Village, come and visit my house too."
"Auntie, we’re heading back now, please go inside!"
The ox cart slowly went on its way, and after about two hours, they reached Big Willow Village.
Qiao Duo’er got off the cart in front of her family’s new home foundation; she came to check on the progress of the new house and incidentally... later go back home with Tan Zhenghong.
She hadn’t come for two days, but the new house had undergone earth-shattering changes.
The walls were already built up to about two meters high, and Tan Zhenghong was leading the workers in putting up a fence. 𝑛𝘰𝘷𝑝𝘶𝑏.𝑐𝘰𝘮
At this rate, in another ten days or so, the construction would be mostly complete.
"How did it go up so fast?" Qiao Duo’er was shocked.
Dàlín joked, "Zheng Hong said that once the house is done, you two will get married. We all want to work hard, don’t we? We’re looking forward to your wedding and the celebratory wine."
"And me, don’t forget about me when the time comes!"
"Don’t listen to his nonsense."
Qiao Duo’er sneakily glared at Tan Zhenghong, this guy really couldn’t keep his mouth shut!
Tan Zhenghong said naively, "Wife, I’ve already asked uncle to help pick a date, you can’t back out."
In other people’s eyes, a bride who is welcomed is completely different from one who is bought.
So, he was determined to marry Qiao Duo’er in a grand and dignified manner.
"I won’t talk to you anymore, I’m going to check out the shed you built." Qiao Duo’er stamped her foot and fled in embarrassment.
There was a small hill behind the house base; Tan Zhenghong had built a shed in front of the hill, which was dry and sheltered from the wind, the perfect place for the mountain muntjac to live.
She planned to bring the mountain muntjac over to get used to the new environment when she had time.
After wandering around, the new house was almost exactly like what Qiao Duo had imagined.
When Zu Hong finished his work, he called his wife to go home together.
For a couple to return home together was also a delightful thing.
Just as they arrived at their home, a sharp scream suddenly came from inside, Qiao Duo’er and Tan Zhenghong looked at each other, then immediately ran towards their house.
The terrible scream had come from their house!
Tan Zhenghong pushed the door, but found it was bolted from the inside.
"Kick it open!" Qiao Duo’er said.
Tan Zhenghong immediately did as she said, kicking the door twice and it swung open.
